RYLA participant Georgia meeting with Lynne.
Today it was great to catch up with Georgia Smith who was sponsored by RC of Strathdale many years ago to attend RYLA.
Georgia subsequently went as a RYLA leader five years in a row to contribute back to the program and was awarded a PHF by the RC of Strathdale for her wonderful work.
We met for lunch today with her parents and shared the exciting news that Georgia and partner Liam are expecting their first baby next week. We spoke a lot about RYLA. Georgia's dad, Simon, coaches the Spring Gully Soccer teams, and there is a chance we could connect with them for future RYLA participants. They are a very multicultural club. We could see if Georgia may like to become a friend of Rotary to help us maintain connections with alumni.
Go Rotary.
NYSF closing date is June 24. We look forward to hearing in some weeks how many of our Bendigo students have successful applications. The ABC radio interview with Fiona Parker went very well on Wednesday.
Kind regards,
Lynne.
